2009, 22(1): 60-65.
Abstract:
Based on the vibration caused by moving vehicles,the pattern recognition method was adopted to identify the damage detection,localization and severity estimation for bridge structures.With the technique,the dynamic responses of a bridge under the same moving vehicle for various predefined damage locations and severities are figured out,and the responses at testing points are written down to form a damage pattern database.Then the measured responses under moving vehicles,collected from the instrumented sensors on a bridge structure,are compared with the damage patterns,and the nearest method for clustering analysis is engaged to carry out the damage detection,localization and severity estimation.The comparison is displayed in a contour or image plot with damage location and severity as independent coordinates.By taking the damage detection of a simply supported beam under a constant moving load with a constant speed across the structure as an example,the concept,effectiveness and robustness of the pattern recognition were demonstrated numerically.The numerical results show that the proposed technique is effective and robust to estimate the damage location and severity of bridge structures.

2009, 22(1): 83-88.
Abstract:
A new method for building extraction,without the need for DTM(digital terrain model) advance extraction,was proposed based on LIDAR(light detection and ranging) data and the shape analysis of contours.In this algorithm,firstly,the initial segmentation of DSM(digital surface model) contours is carried out based on the closure of a contour and the area enclosed by the contour,and the initial contours of buildings are acquired.These buildings are consisted of closed contours expressing building points and vegetable points and have a certain area.Secondly,after smoothing those initial contours,they are segmented to building contours and non-building contours based on dimension surveying and shape characteristics of the contours,such as rectangle tolerance and circle tolerance.Finally,the building contours predigested by the topological relation are served as the outlines of buildings and normalized based on the vertical or parallel characteristics of building outlines.In a test on an undulated region,buildings’ contours were extracted from DSM contours and regularized.To validate the test results,an overlay of extracted buildings’ outlines and an aerial image was checked.The result shows that the proposed method has an accuracy up to 80% and can effectively extract big and independent buildings in undulated regions.

2009, 22(1): 89-95.
Abstract:
To develop an inference engine that can be reused in an intelligent railway location system and directly utilize factual knowledge in software engineering,a proposing-testing generic inference model was put forward.In this model,knowledge is represented using the object-oriented technology.By using a hierarchical model,rules are described as factual knowledge,constraint knowledge,heuristic knowledge,tactful knowledge and goal verifying knowledge.knowledge’s executable form is related to its readable form by using a bi-formal model.Problem-solving method is described as inferential control knowledge,and task verifying knowledge is used to describe task goal.So reasoning control strategy can be separated from an inference engine.The inference engine takes data-driven as its control strategy.Dynamic pattern matching and rule executing are fulfilled using the reflection technology.By classifying knowledge based on knowledge categories and knowledge domain characteristics,conflict resolution mechanism is constructed.Therefore,the reasoning process is controllable.This method has been successfully used in railway location to automatically generate new railway horizontal alignment.

2009, 22(1): 141-146.
Abstract:
To interpret the phenomena of traffic flow breakdown,common parameters of driving behaviors,such as headways and drivers’ reaction time,etc.,were analyzed.Models were derived to describe the relationships between flow and wave speed,speed and density,and density and flow.The curves for the relationships were obtained under different reaction time of different drivers during acceleration or deceleration.The simulated results indicate that the maximum wave speed decreases and the peak flow value increases with a decrease in reaction time of drivers,and that the change in reaction time is the essential cause of traffic flow breakdown.
